Acres are 16x16 spaces, including borders. Use patterns to map each acre on the ground. Remember to include the border in your mapping. Each acre has a border, so in between acres, you should place two pattern rows. You can also use a shovel, but holes disappear when you save. If you don't think you can make the perfect town before your next save, use patterns.

Each acre must include:

12 to 16 trees

6 to 10 flowers. 3 to 4 grow daily. Try to place them where needed.

No weeds. 3 to 4 grow daily, so try to pick them all.

Try not to have items on the ground, excluding seashells. Each flower neutralizes one item, but doesn't count towards your flower count.

The Windmill or Lighthouse also helps you reach Perfect Town status. To get it, you must first donate $200,000 to get the new bridge, $500,000 to get the fountain, and then $1,000,000 to get either the Windmill or Lighthouse. The Windmill attracts more bugs to your town, and the Lighthouse attracts more fish. You cannot have both.

When you visit the Civic Center in the Town Hall and ask about the environment, Pelly or Phyllis will read a comment about your town. There are five of them, each pertaining to a level of status in your town.

The Pits:

"This place is the pits! Everything that can go wrong has gone wrong! There's not a single thing I like in this town!"

Bad:

"I'm not sure what good it will do to write this, but... Could you try to be a bit more thoughtful about your town? Because at this rate..."

Okay:

"Hmm... it's not a passing grade, but it's not a failing grade either. I'd give it a D plus. Maybe a C minus on a good day."

Good:

"This town is fantastic! But even so, it still seems to be missing something."

Perfect:

"Fantastic! [Town Name] is in great shape right now! Yep, it's pretty sweeeeet!"

To get the Golden Watering Can, maintain your Perfect Town Status for 15 days, then go talk to Pelly or Phyllis in the Town Hall Civic Center to claim it. This can has a larger watering radius, and can water a 3x3 area with one action. Also can be used to get Golden Roses by watering wilted Black Roses. See Flower/Hybrids.
